Fate/Canon

Chapter 17: CH17



After Taylor fell into unconsciousness he felt himself leaving his body however due to his inability to awaken he couldn't see what was happening nor stop it.

Soon he felt his spirit/soul suddenly stop and lay flat on his back somewhere unknown to him but he definitely felt at peace.

Even though he was resting, time seemed to be nonexistent as even though he was certain he had been resting for weeks, months or possibly years, yet all his senses were telling him that not even a second has passed witch left him extremely disoriented.

Eventually he managed to open his eyes and was floored by what was before his eyes, light everywhere not a hot light nor a cold light, not a golden or white light, just pure light everywhere.

As he sat up he looked down at the ground and saw what looked to be Roman concrete for the ground yet it felt as soft and airy as marshmallows.

After a moment he stood up and began to look around however he felt blinded even though he still receives visual confirmation of the sight before him.

What was before him was a town or it looked like a town but it also felt like what he was seeing wasn't what others would see.

" Well I guess I might as well walk over to it and take a look."

Taylor began to walk over to the 'Town' admiring not only the architecture but also the environment.

As he walked he began to realise that even though the town was in visual range it was much further that what his eyes were telling him.

He then tried to use his warp spell but he found out that he couldn't feel any magic around him.

If magic could be treated as breathable air then what Surrounded him could be treated as the deepest depths of an ocean.

But it was not suffocating nor pressurising, it was just not something he currently has the ability to use, simple as that.

Eventually he did arrive at the 'town', he began to walk the seemingly cobble looking streets and guided his left hand along the buildings.

As he continued to walk he quietly said.

" This place feels like it is both calm yet eerie." As Taylor looked around he would also knock on the doors to see if anyone was in, yet no one answered.

" Hmm.. Hey Firefly what do you think of this place?"

But even after what should be a minute Taylor didn't hear any answer Firefly.

' NO, NO, NO… this can't be happening.' Taylor began to panic as he has never been without the ability to communicate with Firefly before.

What is even worse is that he can still feel the connection they both have with each other but can't use it.

But it is also thanks to the fact that Taylor can still feel the connection that he didn't have a full mental breakdown.

After taking a breath.

' Ok, calm down panicking won't help, let's see the connection is still there so it probably has something to do with where I currently am, but where is here?'

Taylor kept walking around until eventually he came across a building that can't truly be described, but it looked like every possible temples from every possible culture stacked on top of each other but not in the way of a tower but more like images stacked on top of each other on a computer screen but also kept changing what the top image was.

Slowly he walked up to the building and as he did so the building began to take a single form…

' A 1 story office building?' Taylor's face would look like the perfect meme for bafflement, it could be said to have surpassed the look that Jack Sparrow used when looking at the black Pearl gliding across the sand.

He arrived in front of the door and knocked.

" Hallo… is anyone here."

Then the door unlocked and opened revealing what looked like a reception hall yet Taylor couldn't see anyone inside.

" I will treat this as permission to enter."

As Taylor walked in he looked around at the waiting chairs and the reception desk still seeing no one and upon closer look they appeared to have never been used.

As he looked around the room he eventually saw it, a door with a capital G on it and Taylor guessed with a 99% certainly as to who would be behind that door.

As he walked up to the door his heart began to palpitate with both excitement and nervousness he then knocked on the door and asked.

" May I enter."

After a moment he heard a voice.

" You can Taylor, you don't need to keep asking."

Taylor found himself doing the action of swallowing his saliva, feeling nervous all over his body.

He put his hand to the door handle and pushed.

It didn't open.

Taylor then looked at the writing above the door handle and realised that the door was a pull.

"Hehehe… oh I'm such an idiot." Taylor said while quietly laughing at himself finding himself a lot less tense.

He then pulled the door and it did open.

Before him is the one and only, the alpha and the omega, the creator, the beginning and the end.

GOD

there was even a placard on the desk.

" I have to say I was not expecting the placard." Taylor pointed to the placard.

" I know, but I felt it would be fun." GOD said.

" Please Taylor take a seat." GOD asked while gesturing to the seat in front of the desk.

" Thank you kindly." Taylor said while taking a seat

" So have you figured out why you are here." GOD asked.

" Well considering how I can still feel my connection to Firefly am I safe to assume that I'm not dead?"

" Yes, you are still technically alive there." GOD replied.

" Then my assumption as to why I am here is because I was doing something in relation to the soul mine got dislodged from my body and it came here to recover and then after recovery my soul will return to my body."

" Hmm, That is about 40% of the reason why, do you know the one 60%" GOD questioned.

" Hmm… no I do not believe so."

But GOD knew that while Taylor is indeed being truthful he also knew that Taylor has a close guess as to what it is.

" Well trying to create a soul without the ability to give it the essence is a really silly thing to attempt." GOD said. " And I know the you know what is used to give a soul its essence." GOD continued.

" yea I know." Taylor began to think on the knowledge he has on souls. " Magical energy creates the form, Ego creates the personality and character and Divine power gives a soul its essence."

" Indeed, so tell me how did you plan for her soul to continue to exist without essence." GOD asked even though he already knew.

" Well I was planning to use half of my soul's essence as that was the only form of divine power I had any access to." Taylor said while looking at the floor.

" Taylor, please Look at me." GOD asked.

Taylor looked up to him.

" Surely you know, just how stupid doing something like that is, there is a reason as to why I give every soul their amount of divine power, any less and the soul will collapse." Said GOD. " You are quite fortunate that you were creating her soul while I'm on my 4th day of creation and not on my 6th day as that is when I create souls for sentient beings."

" Then am I correct in saying that on your 5th day you create the souls for the animals?" Taylor curiously asked.

" Yes, actually I like splitting my days in two halves, for the 5th day for example, the first half I create dinosaur's as humans decided to name them then just before the second half of the day they always manage to get themselves extinct and then I create the animals that humans find common place." GOD said.

" Here's a fun tidbit for you, no matter what the Dinosaurs always go extinct by a asteroid." GOD told him.

" How is possible, unless you keep sending an asteroid towards them." Taylor asked with pure curiosity.

GOD obviously knew that Taylor never intended and bad with what he asked.

" Taylor you still need to work on the way you ask your questions." GOD said with a smile.

" Ah… sorry." Taylor said, even in his last life this has been a problem for him.

" Don't worry, I don't mind." GOD said, " But to answer your question, no I don't send the asteroid towards them, actually their body's produces a type of magnetic signal that attracts one asteroid from the far reaches of space, witch then proceeds to wipe them out."

" Yet when I remove this part of them they can no longer be called dinosaurs but a different existence entirely, and they are quite a interesting lot." GOD said.

Both Taylor and GOD began to talk for a long while, and as Taylor talked with GOD more he began to address him more directly until he began to call him Father God witch GOD was happy to hear.

Taylor also learned two interesting fact, the first being that GOD created Akasha to record some of the infinite universes he created, and the other being that the branding of sinner is no longer on him due to many different reasons but two of them are that his body was recreated is a was that is similar but different from Adam and that he hasn't committed any cardinal sin yet.

" So Father God when I return will I still be able to Talk directly with you as I am now?" Taylor asked.

" Hmm… Sure I'll give you a direct communication to me, you will be able to talk to me with both your voice and thoughts." GOD decrees.

" And there is something that you should know, when you go back Akasha will be putting soul shackles on you." GOD said.
